The conversion factor from decimeters to yards is 0.10936132983377, which means that 1 decimeter is equal to 0.10936132983377 yards:

1 dm = 0.10936132983377 yd

To convert 51.5 decimeters into yards we have to multiply 51.5 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from decimeters to yards. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 dm → 0.10936132983377 yd

51.5 dm → L(yd)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in yards:

L(yd) = 51.5 dm × 0.10936132983377 yd

L(yd) = 5.6321084864392 yd

The final result is:

51.5 dm → 5.6321084864392 yd
